O K, I'll bite- What is an "attack angle corrector?". part of a GUN BOAT ?

[Fast Fred]

no guns, just that 12 gauge hand gun, flare thing, no range for it, or is thare
it's a wedge, to correct the angle of the drive, so when she climes on the bubble (about 50-55mph, whos hull,with who in it),so she don't want to keep climbing out and pull the drive out, brakin the bubble causes the hull to slow down. flyin the canard looks cool, but it's not fast, flyin the hull with just a tuch
of bow+, compressin the bubble under the hull and applyin the drive at a horizontal angle, this is a better bet for FAST. no T&T on an SLT, just slows it down

so i can stay On it, i made this heat deflector for the water pump, a buddy got a SST60, said he melted the water pump once.

thinkin if it gets blasted out by the shockwaves, it should fall into the LU out of the way, the pump will have to fend for it's self at that point

Finger ports higher than intakes?

[Jeff Akers]

That doesn't look like any of the Mod 50 port maps that I have seen

These pistons he posted seem to have the finger port transfer hole in a lower position than I have seen also.....Fred, doe's this have somthing to do with the addition of the Nitro ?

[Fast Fred]

i seen the finger port timin on some like that, the idea is that the exhaust is shorter on the lower cyls , more finger port timin is added to fatten the lower cyls up on the high rpm side of things, thats the idea.


nice pistons, thinkin, that the top pin length had a lot to do with ware the finger tranfurs ended up , ya thats what i'm thinkin
